Obama to visit donor Katzenberg's DreamWorks

President Barack Obama will visit DreamWorks Animation — founded and run by a major donor — next week to discuss the economy, the White House said Thursday.

In the Los Angeles area for fundraisers Monday and Tuesday, Obama will speak at DreamWorks on Tuesday, principal deputy press secretary Josh Earnest said. He didn't offer details on what the president would discuss.

DreamWorks's CEO and co-founder is Jeffrey Katzenberg, an Obama bundler in 2012 who also gave $3 million to pro-Obama super PAC Priorities USA Action. During Obama's most recent visit to Los Angeles, in August, he and Katzenberg shared a private dinner in his hotel. The White House disclosed the meeting only after being pressed by reporters traveling with the president, and described Katzenberg as Obama's "longtime friend."

Katzenberg was also the host of an October 2012 fundraiser attended by Obama, former President Bill Clinton and a small group of wealthy donors. The Hollywood Reporter said at the time that the meeting was believed to in part be a Priorities USA Action fundraiser, something also reported this year in "Double Down: Game Change 2012," as that book's authors argued that Obama had violated his pledge not to fundraise for the group by attending the event. The White House and the Obama campaign both called the fundraiser a "thank you event" for campaign supporters.
